18787-D MAN-S-WSB
The wind speed smart sensor is designed to work with HOBO® stations. The smart sensor has a
plug-in modular connector that allows it to be added easily to a HOBO station. All sensor
parameters are stored inside the smart sensor, which automatically communicates
configuration information to the logger without the need for any programming or extensive
user setup.
